I just want to know for my own curiousity.
This is a very good point. And to keep things in perspective, even though we have been transmitting in RF for 100 years or so, that mishmash of EM waves might not even be detectable much beyond our sun's near neighborhood. Also, we have not developed a sufficiently advanced technology to enable us to put humans in interplanetary space and safely shield them from the Sun's periodic tantrums. Until there are some real breakthroughs in propulsion, shielding, etc, we're pretty much stuck to this rock. Unfortunately, the Bush administration cut funding for NASA's breakthrough propulsion project even before Bush started crowing about sending men to Mars. I guess there are no physicists advising him or his handlers.Gold Barz said:What if the alien civilizations are just spread too much apart, even if there were 50-100 in the galaxy, they still could be spread so far apart that they haven't made contact yet.
The Rare Earth Camp is a community of researchers, scientists, and environmentalists who are dedicated to studying and preserving rare earth elements and their impact on the environment.
Rare earth elements are essential for many modern technologies, including electronics, renewable energy, and defense systems. They are also crucial for medical treatments and play a significant role in global economic development.
Some examples of rare earth elements include cerium, neodymium, and lanthanum. These elements are often found in small quantities and are used in a wide range of products, from smartphones and computers to wind turbines and electric cars.
Rare earth elements are typically extracted through mining or from recycled products. They then go through a complex process of separation, purification, and refining before they can be used in various industries.
The extraction and processing of rare earth elements can have a significant impact on the environment, including air and water pollution, and the destruction of habitats. Proper management and recycling of these elements are essential to minimize their environmental impact.
